Perhaps I can direct the question to Dr. Harper—and Ms. Brazeau, if you like, you can add to it.
Dr. Harper, building on the discussion and your presentation, I want to thank you very much for these presentations. I also want to acknowledge very much the analysis you brought forward. Unfortunately this committee is very rushed in dealing with such a serious issue, and your analysis is unique and very important for what we are doing here.
I've put forward a motion calling for a national action plan to end violence against women. Canada is alone amongst like-minded countries in not having a national action plan. Our motion suggests that there are guidelines and there needs to be a main focus on indigenous women and violence against indigenous women.
I'm wondering if you believe that we need a national action plan that involves reaction, prevention, and all of these things with respect to indigenous women, and all women as well.
